It's similar, but not the official Red Hat kernel. I used the default BOOT
kernel config, and added CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION=y.
I also added cslip support.
In 0.2.5 I turned off a few options to slim down the kernel. It's now
about 100k smaller than the default kernel. If anyone is trying to mount
a raid device at install time, they won't be happy. Then again, if they
have a raid device, they probably don't need slinky. ;)

Yes, both issues have been fixed.
Glad to see the install was successful!
